Much more than
Explanation:
The solar orbiter that reaches the farthest aphelion = 936 AU is
the dwarf planet Sedna. So, the solar system across should be wider
than 2(aphelion of Sedna) =
Yet, in my opinion, it should be as wide as nearly 4 light years = #3.8
X 10^13# km. This estimate comes from zero-gravity edge as
midway between the Sun and the nearest star Alpha Centauri at
4.246 light years from the Earth..
